Figure 3. Vertical mobility deteriorates faster in per⁰¹flies, as demonstrated by the RING assay. Bars represent mean height climbed (with SEM) in CS^p (open bars) and per⁰¹(black bars) males at indicated age. The climbing performance of per⁰¹males on day 5 was significantly higher (p<0.001) compared to CS^p. With age, a rapid deterioration in climbing performance was noted in per⁰¹flies with mobility being significantly lower (* p<0.001) on day 20, 35, and 50 compared to age-matched CS^p controls.
